How to Do the Jump the Dog Through the Hoop Yo-Yo Trick:

Step 2: Instead of walking the dog in front of you, bring the yo-yo behind your leg, and walk your yo-yo beneath the leg that is on the same side of your body as your yo-yo hand.

Put your yo-yo hand on your hip to form a hoop.

Step 3: Put your yo-yo hand on your hip. Then arch your elbow straight out so that your arm and side form a "hoop."

Give the string a tug to bring the yo-yo back.

Step 4: Give the string a slight tug to bring the yo-yo back. If you are using a "clutch" yo-yo, wait for the clutch to engage and return the yo-yo automatically. Let the yo-yo swing around behind you and go "through the hoop."
